Hell's Academy

Chapter 67: Six Horned King Lizard

"I-I feel strange," Howard said with a smile. "Today is the first time I hurt someone human, and I don't feel bad. It's important to hurt others to defend those you love right?" Howard gently petted Meros on the head before his entire body surged with flames.

The beautiful flickerings of blue light soon got swallowed by powerful orange dancing spirals that cast Howard's shadow in dozens of directions. Stepping off his back foot, Howard felt something inside of him growing stronger. His horns slowly grew on top of his head, as if by his own will, before a white light slowly started to shimmer off his body.

At the same time, his opponents had started cackling while trying to hold themselves from falling to the floor. The Aresoul Royal Brigade never made the same mistake twice, and had fought plenty of Varlen. In order to deal with Dream Ki, they just needed to activate the right kind of doorway.

Aresoul Magician's couldn't use Ki like a traditional Magician, however, they could create special doors for special types of Ki. At the Sixth Station, the Aresoul had created different sectors where different types of Ki could be gathered. A special type of Ki called Nightmare Flames by Magicians, made it almost too easy to make Varlan suffer.

"Heh, you remind me of my younger brother," Erspeed held out his hand before a strange black flame began to swirl around his body. "He had dreams once, but then he died on the day this power inside me was born."

"You killed him?" Howard's horns grew a little bit larger, his fangs gently started to grow in his mouth, while he patiently moved his hands into the air. "Hmph, I knew it. People like you deserve to die."

"I became a magician not by joice." Erspeed slowly walked forward with dozens of black fire balls emerging around his body. "I became a magician because in my sleep my brother tried to kill me. Do you think you understand suffering because of those Horns. Suffering is more than pain! It's what I feel when I look at you! Your immortality makes me sick!"

"Heh, I've died before." Howard gently pushed Meros behind him, feeling an energy surging inside him from the air. "I've died many times, but you haven't. Tell me what you think of it, okay?"

"Erspeed, I'll limit his movements," His partner said, tapping him on the shoulder. "If he gets too close to you, he'll find himself swallowed in the light of my power."

"I'm going to fight them now, okay?" Howard gently tapped Meros on the head. "Tell your father thank you for using so much energy earlier. I feel really strong." Howard smiled, shimmering a brighter white light, his horns twinkling, before he burst forward.

Swoosh!

Howard instantly covered 10 meters only to find 10 black fire balls striking against his skin. With orange flames surging around him, Howard easily bypassed it, arriving in front of Erspeed in an extremely short time.

His hand turned in the air, twisting towards Erspeed who seemed to have gotten frozen in place. Expecting Howard to instantly slow down from his attack, he hadn't even had time to raise his hands.

"That's impossible." Erspeed muttered, trying to duck before a large wind slammed against the side of his face. Spinning to the side, Erspeed crashed into a boulder, gushing out blood, as his partner ducked and dodged three terrifying attacks.

"Hmm, I thought you were going to kill me!" Howard laughed maniacly. "Come on! This is fun! Let's have fun!"

"Unleash!" The magician fighting him tapped on the floor, causing one large doorway behind him to appear that soon flashed Howard with a bright beam of light. The light seem to turn into dozens of fists that struck towards him with an indescribable force.

Ducking to dodge a few, Howard's body burst with flames, shattering the remaining attacks as his flames suffused with a strange white light.

"That-that's the same power from that Authoritarian." Erspeed got up, holding his arm that had started to drip with blood. "This we have to inform Respell! This is the stuff of a demon king!" Erspeed turned to look at the exit while his friend parried dozens of attacks from Howard.

Howard's body seemed to move with supreme confidence, striking at all of his opponents weak points. With every attack, Erspeed's partner used more and more magic while Howard only seemed to grow stronger.

Truthfully, even Howard now had his limits constantly being tugged on and shattered. The Authoritarian that had fought Respell had been in the S rank, and because of Howard's strange connection to Ki, he'd been able to absorb some of that and make it his own.

However, at the same time, it wasn't his own. The power from the Six Horned King Lizard was way passed his level. Every movement, his body seemed to flicker and send out bursts of Ki, causing explosions to come out with every movement. Of course, this erratic style played to his advantage, causing Erspeed's partner to be completely suppressed.

"I'm having so much fun! It's time to end this!" Howard turned and watched Erspeed dash to the exit before he spun in the air as hundreds of fire like snakes curled outwards and dominated the cavern. Compared to his last time using Ki Transformation, this could said to be much more powerful and intense.

Erspeed's partner instantly got swallowed by a ball of flames, screaming in agony only to find his partner escaping to the surface.

Howard's hand instantly connected with the remaining pieces of flesh on his opponent, sending him flying into the ceiling and causing rocks to rain down onto the floor.

"Hmph, I'm tired," Howard smiled, holding his thumb up to Meros before he instantly collapsed. A few feet from him, a completely charred corpse seemed to have just realized it's demise, twitching next to the fallen body of Howard.

"Leee Leee!" The Six Horned Lizard ran over to Howard and instantly licked his face. Pulling him towards the water, it growled in fear as a figure walked into the room, holding a body in his hand.
